Antioch Estates Creek below Antioch Subdivision
Antioch Creek below Antioch Subdivision, Okaloosa County
June 5, 2001
BioRecon: A rapid, cost-effective screening mechanism for identification of biological impairment
Purpose
A bioassessment was performed at this site on Antioch Creek to
assess the impacts of subdivision construction runoff on its biota and
wildlife habitat. This bioassessment was in technical support of a
compliance action by the FDEP Northwest District’s Submerged
Lands and Environmental Resource Program.
Background
Antioch Creek at the bioassessment site is a second order stream,
originating just west of Okaloosa County Road 4 (Antioch Road), (Lat.
30° 43’ 09.8” Long. 86° 37’ 12.0”) less than 2 miles southwest of
Crestview. Antioch Creek flows into Pensacola Bay via the Yellow
River and Blackwater and East Bays. This site drains the Southern
Pine Plains and Hills of subecoregion 65f.
Results
The BioRecon indicated a severely impaired biological community.
Biometrics results from an adjacent watershed, Williams Branch at P.J.
Adams Road are given below as a comparison. All 3 biological
indicators at Antioch Creek failed thresholds established for a healthy
aquatic wildlife community:

The stream community was severely limited by sediments from the
cleared hillsides in its headwaters. A moderate bloom of iron/sulfur
bacteria covered most of the stream, producing sheen on the water
surface. Iron/sulfur bacteria and sediments eroded from the hillsides
smothered 100% of the aquatic habitats, which eliminated the stream’s
wildlife diversity and productivity. The bacteria and the associated
precipitated iron smother the gills and bodies of the fish and wildlife.
Sediments filled the stream channel to a depth of at least 0.5 meters.
This left a water depth of 0.02 meters, much too shallow to support a
fish population. The creek was severely braided from sediments filling
the stream channel.
During rainfall events turbidity, iron and sediment
pollution load will be transported to the Yellow River and into
Blackwater, East, and Pensacola Bays. Iron is a contributor for algal
blooms in marine waters. Shading from turbidity and sediment
smothering destroy seagrass and oyster reef nursery areas in down
stream Bays. Smothering from the hillside sediment runoff had killed
much of Antioch Creek’s wetland forest riparian buffer zone. These
buffer zones provide the shade, food, habitat (woody debris/leaf
fall/roots) and filtration necessary for the continued propagation of
Creek’s biota. The western panhandle of Florida experiences severe
erosion. Soft sandy soil, intense rainfall, and steep topographical relief
make Antioch Creek highly susceptible to erosion after removal of
vegetative cover.
Significance
This Antioch Creek site did not meet Class III State Water Quality
Standards 62-302 for recreation and the propagation and maintenance of
a healthy, well-balanced population of fish and wildlife. The iron/sulfur
bacteria and sediment effects from the hillside erosion contributed to
this stream not meeting State designated use. Inorganic and organic
sediment deposition has reduced stream flow, which impairs the
stream’s fish and wildlife nursery function. Habitat smothering from
sedimentation and water pollution from the hillside sediment runoff
negatively affects the Antioch Creek, Yellow River and Bays’ fish and
wildlife. Reduced flows, plus nutrient, and organic sediment loading
could affect the federally endangered gulf sturgeon, which inhabits the
Pensacola Bay System. Death of the forest canopy cover and the
shallow sun baked water caused by sediment runoff, raised the water
temperature to over 87 degrees from its natural 70
This thermal
pollution also impaired the indigenous aquatic wildlife community.
Habitat assessments rated poor at the 3 sites (29% North Fork), (36%
South Fork) (34% Antioch Creek) compared to natural conditions.
Suggestions
Restoring the stream's natural hydrology (i.e. depth/width ratio),
maintain a >18 meter riparian forest buffer zone and eliminate sediment
runoff would allow the watershed's fish and wildlife habitat (woody
debris, leaf packs, undercut banks, roots, and aquatic vegetation) to
return.
